J.D. Williams Library’s Unseen Collection
Did you know the
J.D. Williams Library has a hidden floor that contains original theses dating
back to the mid 1900’s? Mezzanine
A, with an entrance near Starbucks, has over 5,500 theses shelved. If in search
of research or support on a specific topic one is bound to find a primary
source here.
“In
mezzanine A, we have topics ranging from chemical engineering to journalism,”
said Alex Watson, a reference librarian.
Before venturing
to this hidden space, it is recommended to visit the library’s website and
search for a topic in the online database. Once searched, every original work,
based on the desired topic, will appear on the screen for you to sift through
to find an appropriate source.
If used correctly,
this unused area, may be one man or woman’s treasure.
